Toyota Sienna Recall 17V657: Shifter Can Leave Park Without Brake, Risking Rollaway

NHTSA campaign 17V657, reported October 18, 2017, 310,475 vehicles potentially affected.

What this recall means for you

Certain Toyota Sienna vehicles from 2005 to 2007 and 2009 to 2010 may have a problem in the shift lock assembly. This can allow the shift lever to be moved out of the Park position without the brake pedal being pressed.

If the shifter can be moved from Park without the brake pressed and the parking brake is not applied, the vehicle may roll, which increases the risk of a crash. Vehicles previously recalled under campaign 13V-429 are not affected by this recall.

Toyota will notify owners. Dealers will replace the shift lock solenoid and reapply grease at no charge. To check whether your vehicle is included, contact Toyota customer service at 1-800-331-4331 (Toyota recall number H0V) or check your VIN for open recalls.
